After the two extremely repressed youths finished talking, they headed straight to the door of their target room.

After pausing briefly, Dai Mubai gathered his courage and raised his hand to knock on the door three times.

After knocking, both their hearts leaped into their throats. They unconsciously took two steps back, hoping that the "fairy" inside would open the door for them, preferably then spend an unforgettable night with them...

Yet after waiting a while, the door before them remained completely still. Not only did no fairy open it for them as they had hoped, but not even the slightest sound came from inside.

"Fatty, could you have gotten it wrong?"

Hearing Dai Mubai's question, Ma Hongjun scratched his head before replying firmly:

"Impossible. I'm absolutely sure I didn't see wrong. That fairy definitely entered this room. The reason there's no movement might be because he had something to do and left temporarily, or maybe he's already asleep... How about we knock a few more times? If there's still no response from inside, we'll forget it..."

Dai Mubai thought it over, then nodded in agreement. He immediately stepped forward again and knocked on the door three more times, using even more force than before.

Because he was so eager to see the fairy's face, Dai Mubai failed to control his strength this time, and the three knocks were heard by most of the residents on the entire floor.

That terrified Ma Hongjun.

He was merely lustful.

If he accidentally provoked public outrage, then without any elders around to protect him, he might be in for a world of hurt!

Just as he was about to tell Dai Mubai to mind the disturbance they were causing, a cold yet rather pleasant voice suddenly came from inside the room:

"Who is outside? What do you want?"

Upon hearing those words, Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai's breathing stopped before suddenly quickening.

The fairy was inside!

They were about to behold his heavenly visage!

Dai Mubai quickly steadied himself, repeatedly rehearsing in his heart what he was about to say, making sure he would not lose his nerve at the critical moment.

But before he could prepare himself, the door to the room behind them suddenly opened, followed by an utterly merciless scolding:

"Why are you making such a racket in the middle of the night instead of sleeping? Do you know you're disturbing people? Are you trying to get yourselves killed?!"

Caught off guard by the rebuke, the two guilty young men were naturally startled. They instinctively turned around, ready to apologize.

However, when they saw that the person scolding them was merely someone their own age and roughly their height, the panic in their eyes instantly vanished. After exchanging a glance, their gazes were immediately filled with amusement.

Dai Mubai gave a wicked smile:

"Kid! For your own safety, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business! Go back to your room and keep your head down, pretending you know nothing. It'll be good for both you and me!"

Ma Hongjun chimed in as well:

"That's right! Don't refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit! Otherwise, once us brothers start beating you up, you'll be in for a world of hurt!"

Jiang Xuan remained calm, but inwardly, he had already sentenced the two fools to death.

The reason he had stepped in to stop them was indeed to save someone, but it was not to play the hero and save a beauty.

More precisely, he had acted on a moment of kindness, impulsively wanting to save these two scum whose brains were ruled by lust.

After all, he had also heard that "woman's" voice just now, and for some reason, it had sounded rather familiar.

After thinking it over carefully, he realized that although the voice had been deliberately suppressed, it still sounded very much like Sword Battle Loli...

Could Chen Xin have secretly followed him here, intending to protect him from the shadows?

If that was the case, then these two idiots blinded by lust were truly licking a cat's nose like a mouse—rushing headlong toward death!

Sword Battle Loli's state of mind was already unstable. If these two idiots provoked him a little more, he might draw his sword in rage and start cutting people down.

As two important figures in the original protagonist group, Jiang Xuan could not bear to let these two die so easily. The Soul-Gathering Pill he had refined made it clear enough that the pills he refined in the future would most likely have all kinds of side effects as well.

With the system that granted returns whenever he gifted pills, so long as he did not trick his own people, he naturally needed to find a few powerful suckers to exploit to the bitter end. Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai, these lust-addled yet quite capable idiots, had been two of his original targets.

Who would have thought that after he kindly saved these two idiots' lives, not only were they ungrateful, but they even wanted to become enemies with him and dared to threaten him!

Should he simply return to his room and let Sword Battle Loli stab these two idiots to death with a single sword?

Even if their elders came seeking revenge afterward, they would be no match for Chen Xin, whose Soul Power had reached level 97.

But after thinking about it, Jiang Xuan suddenly changed his mind.

Since Chen Xin had chosen to follow him in secret, it meant that he most likely did not want Jiang Xuan to discover him right now.

Therefore, if Jiang Xuan taught these two idiots a lesson himself, he could both control his strength and avoid embarrassing Chen Xin. It was the best of both worlds!

"Heh. Disturbing people wasn't enough for you, and now you dare threaten me! You've got some nerve! Looks like I'll have to teach you a profound lesson, so you can understand what morality is!"

Seeing that Jiang Xuan had not obediently left and even dared to provoke him, Dai Mubai finally could not hold it in any longer and laughed:

"Hahahaha! I'm dying, Fatty! Did you hear that? This kid actually said he was going to teach the two of us a lesson!"

Ma Hongjun was even more exaggerated, immediately rolling on the floor and putting on a performance of clutching his stomach in laughter.

Putting everything else aside, both of them were confident that among people their age, no one could match them in strength!

After all, both possessed extraordinary identities:

One was a prince of the Star Luo Empire. At twelve years old, his Soul Power had already reached level 25;

The other was Flender's personal disciple, whom he had personally trained since the age of six. Though only nine years old, he had already become a two-ring Soul Master.

Compared to these two, their peers might as well have been worlds apart. Though stronger geniuses did exist in this world, neither of them believed they could be so unlucky as to encounter a once-in-ten-thousand supreme genius by sheer coincidence!

Watching their exaggerated smiles and movements, Jiang Xuan's expression remained cold.

Perfect. He had only recently acquired his third Soul Ring, so this was a good opportunity to test its combat power:

"Have you made enough trouble? If those are your last words, then this ends here!"

As soon as he spoke, Jiang Xuan willed it, and the Eight Trigrams Furnace martial soul appeared.

When Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun saw that his martial soul bore three Soul Rings, two of which were purple and black, their expressions instantly froze.

Wait, something about this situation seemed wrong!

Were they seeing things?
